This Month/This Year? (Score:4, Insightful)
This month and this year are the same thing at this point, since it's January. And the last time I used a phone was in December, so none of the options work for me, since it was last year but not over a year.

... because when power is out I can still make a call if I need to and report the power outage. While I do have a working cell, within the home the signal blows and I have too many dropped calls. Finally, I've had such a horrible experience with VOIP, I've walked away from it completely.

The most common interpretation of "this month" and "this year" would have them meaning the same thing. Perhaps if this was the New Year's Day poll, we could get the first four answers all meaning the same thing!

If it is at my desk at work, and wired to the wall...it is a landline.
Landlines == wired to the wall
No need to dicker about behind the scenes protocols.
You are either cellular or landline.
